Definitions

  • the present invention is concerned with olefin polymerisation in slurry phase loop reactors, in particular in multiple reactor systems.
  • Slurry phase polymerisation of olefins is well known wherein an olefin monomer and optionally olefin comonomer are polymerised in the presence of a catalyst in a diluent in which the solid polymer product is suspended and transported.
  • This invention is specifically related to polymerisation in at least one loop reactor of a multiple reactor system where the slurry is circulated in the reactor typically by means of a pump or agitator.
  • Liquid full loop reactors are particularly well known in the art and are described for example in U.S. Patent Numbers 3,152,872 , 3,242,150 and 4,613,484 .
  • Polymerisation is typically carried out at temperatures in the range 50-125°C and at pressures in the range 1-100 bara.
  • the catalyst used can be any catalyst typically used for olefin polymerisation such as chromium oxide, Ziegler-Natta or metallocene-type catalysts.
  • the product slurry comprising polymer and diluent, and in most cases catalyst, olefin monomer and comonomer can be discharged intermittently or continuously, optionally using concentrating devices such as hydrocyclones or settling legs to minimise the quantity of fluids withdrawn with the polymer.
  • the at least one loop reactor of a multiple reactor system is of a continuous tubular construction comprising at least two, for example four, vertical sections and at least two, for example four horizontal sections.
  • the heat of polymerisation is typically removed using indirect exchange with a cooling medium, preferably water, in jackets surrounding at least part of the tubular loop reactor.
  • the volume of the at least one loop reactor of a multiple reactor system can vary but is typically in the range 10 to 120 m 3 the loop reactors of the present invention are of this generic type.
  • a process for controlling a slurry phase (co-) polymerisation process in the presence of a polymerisation catalyst in at least one loop reactor of a multiple reactor system which process comprises maintaining the density SPAN of the polymer powder particles (defined as the absolute value of the density difference in g/cm 3 between the average density of the polymer particles exiting the reactor with particle size above D90 and the average density of the material with particle size below D10) below 0.005, preferably below 0.003, more preferably below 0.0026, most preferably below 0.0023, said process being performed in a loop reactor of volume 75-200m 3 at a solids concentration of at least 20 vol% and at a space time yield (which is production rate of polymer per unit of loop reactor volume) in the range 0.1-0.4 ton/hour/m 3 .
  • the density SPAN of the polymer powder particles defined as the absolute value of the density difference in g/cm 3 between the average density of the polymer particles exiting the reactor with particle size above D90 and the average density of the material with particle size below

  • At least 30wt%, most preferably more than 40wt%, of the polymer produced in the multiple reactor system is made in at least one loop reactor wherein the average internal diameter of at least 50% of the total length of the reactor is at least 700 millimetres.
  • One advantage of the present invention is that the specific energy consumption (i.e. the energy consumed per unit weight of polymer produced) of the loop reactor is reduced whilst maintaining a given reactor residence time and avoiding unacceptable reactor fouling.
  • the invention is especially advantageous when it is desired to design and operate a reactor at high solids loadings when it has previously been considered necessary to use what have now been found to be excessively high loop circulation velocities.
  • This invention relates to a method for continuous polymerization of olefins, preferably alpha mono olefins, in an elongated tubular closed loop reaction zone.
  • the olefin(s) is continuously added to, and contacted with, a catalyst in a hydrocarbon diluent.
  • the monomer(s) polymerise to form a slurry of solid particulate polymer suspended in the polymerisation medium or diluent.
  • the slurry in the reactor will comprise the particulate polymer, the hydrocarbon diluent(s), (co) monomer(s), catalyst, chain terminators such as hydrogen and other reactor additives.
  • the slurry will comprise 20-75, preferably 30-70 weight percent based on the total weight of the slurry of particulate polymer and 80-25, preferably 70-30 weight percent based on the total weight of the slurry of suspending medium, where the suspending medium is the sum of all the fluid components in the reactor and will comprise the diluent, olefin monomer and any additives;
  • the diluent can be an inert diluent or it can be a reactive diluent in particular a liquid olefin monomer; where the principal diluent is an inert diluent the olefin monomer will typically comprise 2-20, preferably 4-10 weight percent of the slurry.
  • the slurry is pumped around the relatively smooth path-endless loop reaction system at fluid velocities sufficient (i) to maintain the polymer in suspension in the slurry and (ii) to maintain acceptable cross-sectional concentration and solids loading gradients.
  • the solids concentration in the slurry in the at least one loop reactor is at least 20 volume %, more preferably at least 25 volume%, and most preferably at least 30 volume%, where volume % is [(total volume of the slurry - volume of the suspending medium)/(total volume of the slurry)] x100.
  • volume % is [(total volume of the slurry - volume of the suspending medium)/(total volume of the slurry)] x100.
  • the solids concentration measured as weight percentage which is equivalent to that measured as volume percentage will vary according to the polymer produced but more particularly according to the diluent used.
  • the polymer produced is polyethylene and the diluent is an alkane, for example isobutane, it is preferred that the solids concentration is above 30 in particular above 40 weight % for example in the range 40-60 preferably 45%-55 weight % based on the total weight of the slurry.
  • greater than 50% of the total length of the loop reactor has an internal diameter over 750mm, for example over 850mm, and preferably between 700 and 800 millimetres. It is preferred that greater than 50%, in particular greater than 70%, for example greater than 85% of the total length of the reactor has an internal diameter over 700 millimetres, in particular over 750 millimetres, for example between 700 and 800 millimetres.
  • a particular advantage of this invention is that high slurry concentrations at relatively low circulation velocities and relatively high reactor loop diameters can be used .
  • the Froude number in the reactor is preferably maintained at or below 30, for example in the range 24 to 0.5, more preferably 20 to 1, parrticularly in the range 15 to 2, with the most preferred ranges being 10 to 3 or 9 to 2.
  • the Froude number is a dimensionless parameter indicative of the balance between the suspension and settling tendencies of particles in a slurry. It provides a relative measure of the momentum transfer process to the pipe wall from particles compared to the fluid. Lower values of the Froude number indicate stronger particle-wall (relative to fluid-wall) interactions.
  • the Froude number (Fr) is defined as v 2 /(g(s-1)D) where v is the average velocity of the slurry, g is the gravitational constant, s is the specific gravity of the solid in the diluent and D is the internal pipe diameter.
  • the specific gravity of the solid polymer which is the ratio of the density of the polymer to the density of water is based on the annealed density of the degassed polymer after being substantially devolatilised and immediately prior to any extrusion as measured using method ISO1183A.
  • reactors can be designed and operated at specific pressure drop both per unit reactor length and per mass of polymer and total pressure drop for the loop less than that taught as being required, particularly at high solids loadings and large reactor diameters.
  • This invention permits total loop pressure drops of less than 1.3 bar, particularly less than 1 bar even for polymer production rates of above 25, even above 45 tonnes per hour.
  • one or more than one pump in the loop preferably on one or more horizontal sections; these can be located on the same horizontal section or on different sections.
  • the pump or pumps can be of the same diameter or larger or smaller diameter preferably of the same diameter as the internal diameter of the section of the reactor where the pump or pumps are located. It is preferable to employ a single pump and it is a feature of the present invention that requirements for number and power of pump(s) is less onerous than for conventional processes.
  • Reactor size is 75-200m 3 preferably in the range 100-175m 3 .
  • reactors for example having volumes of greater than 80 m 3 , to be built with a reactor length to diameter ratio of less than 500, preferably less than 400 more preferably less than 250.
  • Reduction in reactor length to diameter ratio minimises compositional gradients around the reaction loop and enables production rates of greater than 25 tonnes (per reactor) per hour to be achieved with only a single point of introduction for each reagent around the reaction loop.
  • reactants e.g. olefins
  • catalyst e.g. olefins
  • reactors of equal volume reactors are typically used in order to accommodate the entire grade range with maximum flexibility.
  • the existence of such externally imposed reactor dimensions places constraints on the operating window available for each reactor, and thus on the ability to balance reactor activity, product quality, throughput and cooling in each reactor. It is generally preferred that such reactors have the same average internal diameter, it is most preferred that the reactors are constructed to the same dimensions.
  • the loop reactor has horizontal and vertical sections, and the vertical sections comprise at least 50% preferably at least 60% more preferably at least 70% of the total length of the reactor.
  • the density span of the polymer powder particles (defined as the absolute value of the density difference in g/cm 3 between the average density of the polymer particles exiting the reactor with particle size above D90 and the average density of the material with particle size below D10) is below 0.005, preferably below 0.003, more preferably below 0.0026, most preferably below 0.0023.

It is also preferred that D95 is less than 2000 ⁇ m, preferably less than 1500 ⁇ m, more preferably less than 1000 ⁇ m, most preferably less than 355 ⁇ m where D95, D90, D50 and D10 are defined such that 95wt%, 90wt%, 50wt% or 10wt% of the polymer particles have a diameter of less than D95, D90, D50 and D10 respectively.
  • the average particle size D50 is preferably between 100 and 1500 microns, most preferably between 150 and 1000 microns.

  • the claimed control i. e. the maintenance of the density span below certain values, was highly critical for the metallocene catalysts.
  • a further benefit of the present invention is to improve the speed and safety associated with start-ups and grade transitions.
  • the compositions of monomers and hydrogen and the product properties may be changing continuously, the quantity of absorption of monomers in the polymer will additionally be altered by the changing product properties (principally density) and gas composition.
  • the control of the span according to the present invention enables the speed of start- ups and transitions to be improved and the production of wide-specification material to be minimised.
  • the density span can vary significantly with particle size and/or particle size distribution.
  • the principal determinants of the average particle size of the powder are the residence time in the reactor and the catalyst yield.
  • the particle size distribution of the powder can be affected by many factors including the type, and particle size distribution, of the catalyst fed to the reactor, the initial and average catalyst activity, the robustness of the catalyst support and susceptibility of the powder to fragment under reaction conditions.
  • Solids separating devices such as hydrocyclones
  • the location of the withdrawal point for the concentrating device and the design and operating conditions of the concentrating device system, preferably the at least one hydrocyclone recycle loop, also enables the particle size and particle size distribution within the reactor to be controlled.
  • catalyst systems which provide the desired particle size distribution are that they can be used at high productivity: generally the higher the productivity (as measured in g polymer per g of catalyst) the larger the individual polymer particles formed.
  • the present invention permits the use of catalyst systems having productivity of at least 5000g polyolefin/g of catalyst, and typically at least 10000g polyolefin/g of catalyst, most preferably above 15000 g polyolefin/g of catalyst.
  • a pre-polymer of controlled particle size distribution made using any catalyst as described above may also be introduced to the polymerization reactor.
  • the prepolymerisation may be carried out by any suitable process, for example, polymerisation in a liquid hydrocarbon diluent or in the gas phase using a batch process, a semi-continuous process or a continuous process.

  • Hydrogen is maintained at (i) a low (or zero) concentration in the reactor(s) manufacturing the high molecular weight components, e.g. hydrogen percentages including between 0-0.1 vol % and at (ii) a very high concentration in the reactor(s) manufacturing the low molecular weight components e.g. hydrogen percentages between 0.5-2.4 vol %.
  • the reactors can equally be operated to produce essentially the same polymer melt index in successive reactors.
  • one of the advantages of the invention is that cross-sectional slurry concentration distributions can be maintained within acceptable operating limits at high reactor diameters, even with high solids loadings.

  • FIG. 1 shows a plot of power and current requirement of the pump (plotted as a relative value rather than absolute) over a period of one hour for the polymerisation of Example 1. The variation shown here is greater than would be expected for a pure solvent, but is low for a polymer-containing slurry, indicating that little or no segregation of the slurry is occuring.
  • the temperature at different points in the reactor during is also affected by the slurry concentration gradient. Absolute differences in measured temperature at different points in a reactor can be due to differences in calibration of the thermocouples, so in order to identify "real" differences in temperature, the variation during a temperature transition is measured. In an inhomogeneous slurry the trend of such temperature transitions would vary.
  • Figure 2 shows such a transition for the polymerisation of Example 1. Figure 2 shows that in Example I the temperature transition trend is constant throughout the reactor, indictating good homogeneity.
  • a significant effect of fouling of a reactor is a change in the heat transfer coefficient across the reactor wall.
  • the heat transfer coefficient can be measured over a very long period (many months), and an absence of any reduction indicates that there is no build-up of fouling material over this time.
  • Figure 3 shows the heat transfer coefficient for Example I over a period of 250 days, from which it can be seen that there is no long-term reduction in the coefficient.
